Traveling to a new place often feels like a dream come true. Delicious new food and gorgeous new sights to see make visiting a new destination a memory you’ll never forget. And then, there are some places that seem almost too beautiful to be real. Check out these places with landscapes and sights that are a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Socotra Island, Yemen

A UNESCO Natural Heritage Site, this island is located along the Arabian Sea and is full of natural beauty unlike anything you’ve ever seen. The untouched white sand dunes next to blue lagoons, the mushroom-shaped trees, and the deep caves show visitors the timeless beauty of the island.

Cappadocia, Turkey

Cappadocia is a region in south-central Turkey, known for its cone-shaped geographical formations they call “fairy chimneys.” With an entire ancient underground city beneath the feet of anyone standing in the region, this area is an incredibly beautiful and historically rich region. And it’s best viewed from the sky, in one of the many hot air balloon tours this area is known for!

Lençóis Maranhenses, Brazil

This national park is located on the northeastern coast of Brazil. Its landscape is covered in rolling sand dunes, and the valleys between the dunes fill up with water during the rainy seasons. This creates endless freshwater lagoons, creating an insane visual landscape and incredibly diverse ecosystem. And it’s the perfect place to go surfing, canoeing, and horseback riding!

Semuc Champey is one of the most impressive places on the planet. It’s considered one of the most beautiful sites in Guatemala and it’s a gem of Central America you should definitely visit if you have a chance.

Semuc Champley is located 6.8 miles south of the Q’eqchi’ Maya town of Lanquín. Its name means “where the river hides under the earth,” and yes, it’s as gorgeous as it sounds. This natural limestone bridge is around nearly 1,000 feet wide with the Cahabòn River passing under it.

That’s not all. Next to the bridge, you can see numerous steeped natural pools filled with incredibly clear water. It’s the place where locals and travelers often swim and relax at. The location is very popular among tourists, but getting there is not easy. It takes a 6-hour ride from Guatemala City to Coban, where you have to take another bus and ride for 2 more hours. The last half hour of the ride takes you on a steep dirt road that makes you question your adventuristic spirit.

However, once you reach the goal, it’s all worth it. There are several hotels and hostels where you can stay while exploring this paradise on earth.

Thailand is a gorgeous and exotic country that has a lot to offer. The capital of Thailand, Bangkok, represents a bridge between modernity and tradition. Here are 3 places we’re sure you would enjoy visiting once you find yourself in Bangkok.   

Wat Arun 

Even though there are more than 31,000 temples in Thailand, Wat Arun stands out the most. Located near the Chao Phraya River, this temple with a 269-foot-tall prahng will leave you breathless. You can climb to the top and enjoy the stunning surrounding views, or you can admire its golden glow from the ground at night. 

The Grand Palace 

Designed in 1782, the year Bangkok became the capital of Thailand, the Grand Palace is home to the royal throne and the sacred Temple of the Emerald Buddha. Even though the royal family doesn’t live here anymore, the palace has kept its grandiose beauty and is still a very popular site for both locals and tourists.  

Wat Pho 

With 1360 marble inscriptions, Wat Pho was the first public center in Thailand that now has the largest Buddha. The gold-plated sculpture is 150-feet-long and occupies almost the entire space. The largest collection of images of the Buddha in Thailand can also be seen in Wat Pho.

London, a city best known for the Big Ben, the iconic red buses and of course, the Royal Family, is an ultra-modern city with rich history that offers many great places to marvel at.  

Here are three unique places in London you simply must visit! 

The Globe Theatre 

The first Globe theatre was home to many of Shakespeare’s famous plays, but unfortunately it was burned down during the performance of Henry VIII in 1613. In order to rebuild the iconic building as faithfully to the original as possible, architects used the same materials and construction methods that were used when it was first built.  

Prime Meridian, Greenwich 

The prime meridian in Greenwich divides the Earth in two hemispheres. It was established by Sir George Airy in 1851 and has been used as the reference meridian since 1884. Stand on the Prime Meridian Line and be at two hemispheres at same time! 

South Bank 

This place has over 14 million visitors per year. With around two miles of art and entertainment venues located between the bridges and a beautiful view of the city landmarks such as St. Pauls, the Tower of London and Big Ben, this place is a must-see for everyone who appreciates beautiful architecture.

If you want to surprise your loved one with a romantic, yet memorable getaway, you should take them to places that are built in the name of love.

Taj Mahal in Agra, India

Taj Mahal, one of the world’s most famous and beautiful monument of love, was built by the Fifth Mughal Emperor, Shah Jahan, in the 17th century. Despite having seven wives, his third wife Empress Mumtaz Mahal was his favorite. She accompanied him on his trips throughout the Empire, but sadly, she died while giving birth to their 14th child. In response to the death of his beautiful 38-year old wife, he built the fascinating ivory-marble Taj Mahal.

Mystery Castle in Phoenix, Arizona

This castle was built in the 1930s in the name of love between a father and daughter. A man called Boyce Luther Gully was diagnosed with tuberculosis, so he left his wife and his 5-year-old girl named Mary Lou.

When she turned 22, she received a letter from her dying father in which he told her that he had built her a castle, just as he promised her. The fortress was made from junk that nobody wanted – stone, automobile parts, telephone poles, salvaged rail tracks from a mine etc. Mary Lou moved to the Mystery Castle with her mother, and lived there until her death in 2010.

Kodai-Ji Temple in Kyoto, Japan

Believe it or not, in the past, not only men built monuments for their loved ones. One stunning example is the Kodai-Ji Temple, which was built by a woman in 1606 in memory of her dead husband. Kita-no-Mandokoro, after the death of her spouse, became a priestess at the temple where she stayed until her death in 1624. Both husband and wife were buried at the temple garden.
